(i)       CD&R
Investor Director Nomination, Appointment and Election. From and after the Closing until the CD&R Investor Rights Termination
Event (the “CD&R Investor Rights Period”), the CD&R Investor Group shall be entitled to nominate for
election, fill vacancies and appoint replacements for a number of CD&R Investor Directors up to the CD&R Investor Director
Number. At each annual meeting or special meeting of stockholders during the CD&R Investor Rights Period at which any directors
of the Company are to be elected, the Company shall take all corporate and other actions necessary to cause the applicable CD&R
Investor Nominees to be nominated for election as directors on the Board and will use its reasonable best efforts to solicit proxies
in favor of the election of such CD&R Investor Nominees to be elected at such meeting, in each case for a term expiring at
the annual meeting of stockholders at which the term for directors in such CD&R Investor Nominee’s class of directors
shall expire and until such CD&R Investor Nominee’s successor shall have been duly elected and qualified or at such earlier
time (if any) as such CD&R Investor Nominee may resign, retire, die or be removed as a director of the Company. During the
CD&R Investor Rights Period, (1) if the number of CD&R Investor Directors exceeds the CD&R Investor Director Number,
unless otherwise requested by the Company by action of the Independent Non-CD&R Investor Directors, the CD&R Investor Group
shall promptly (and in any event, if so requested, prior to the time at which the Board next takes any action, whether at a meeting
or by written consent) cause one or more of the CD&R Directors or the Other CD&R Investor Directors to resign such that,
following the resignations of such individuals, the number of CD&R Investor Directors no longer exceeds the CD&R Investor
Director Number at such time; provided, however, that if the number of CD&R Investor Directors exceeds the CD&R
Investor Director Number solely due to a vacancy in the number of Independent Non-CD&R Investor Directors, which vacancy the
Unaffiliated Shareholder Directors intend to fill, in lieu of causing the resignation of one or more CD&R Directors or the
Other CD&R Investor Directors, the CD&R Investor Group may cause one or more CD&R Directors or Other CD&R Investor
Directors to recuse himself, herself or themselves from voting or granting consent with respect to any Board action taken until
such vacancy is filled such that, during the period of such vacancy, the aggregate number of votes cast or consents granted by
the CD&R Investor Directors with respect to any such matter does not exceed the CD&R Investor Director Number, and (2)
if the limitations and requirements imposed by Law, regulation or the rules of a stock exchange on which the securities of the
Company are quoted or listed for trading require a change to the number of CD&R Investor Directors that are not CD&R Investor
Independent Directors, following consultation with the Board, the CD&R Investors shall promptly cause one or more of the CD&R
Directors or the Other CD&R Investor Directors to resign and, if, following such resignations, the number of CD&R Investor
Directors falls below the CD&R Investor Director Number, CD&R Investor Independent Nominees shall be designated and appointed
to the Board in accordance with the terms of Section 3.1(c)(ii) so that, following such appointments, the number of CD&R Investor
Directors equals the CD&R Investor Director Number. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at all times
during the CD&R Investor Rights Period, (x) the CD&R Investor Director Number shall not be less than one (1), and (y) at
any time during which the CD&R Investor Director Number is five (5) or more, at least one (1) CD&R Investor Director must

Committee (or if none serve thereon, the remaining CD&R Directors or, if no CD&R Directors remain in office, the CD&R
Investor Group) shall have the right to designate (x) any replacement for a CD&R Investor Director upon the death, resignation,
retirement or removal from office of such director and (y) fill any other vacancy or vacancies of the Board to the extent that
the number of CD&R Investor Directors is less than the CD&R Investor Director Number, and the Company and the Board will
use its reasonable best efforts to take all corporate and other actions necessary to cause the CD&R Investor Nominees designated

individual (a “Board Observer”) to attend (without voting rights) each meeting of the Board or any committee
thereof (and to receive from the Company, subject to the execution and delivery of a customary confidentiality agreement, copies
of all notices, information and other material it provides to the Board and committees thereof) until such time as such Company
Default Event is cured. The Company agrees that each Board Observer shall be entitled to reimbursement for its participation and
related expenses as if such Board Observer were a director of the Company.

with respect to insurance coverage and reimbursement for Board participation and related expenses and (B) shall purchase and maintain,

business of the type and size of the Company, whose shares are listed on a public exchange, on behalf of and covering the individuals
who at any time on or after the Closing are or become directors of the Company, against expenses, liabilities or losses asserted
against or incurred by such individual in such capacity or arising out of such individual’s status as such, subject to customary
exclusions; provided that in no event shall such amount of coverage be less than the amount of coverage provided under the
Company’s directors and officers liability insurance as of the date hereof.

Investor Obligations with Respect to CD&R Investor Nominees. With respect to each annual meeting of stockholders of the

Group shall notify the Company of the individuals it nominates as the applicable CD&R Investor Nominees in writing and shall
provide, or cause such individuals to provide, to the Company, such information about such individuals and the nomination to the
Company, at such times as the Company may reasonably request in order to ensure compliance with applicable securities Laws and
the rules of a stock exchange on which the securities of the Company are quoted or listed for trading, and to enable the Board
to make determinations with respect to the qualifications of the individuals to be CD&R Investor Nominees. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, a nomination shall be deemed to have been made if a CD&R Director, who is a member of the Nominating and Corporate
Governance Committee, shall affirm at a meeting of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee that, in such individual’s
capacity as a representative of the CD&R Investor Group, he or she is making the nomination on behalf of the CD&R Investor
Group. The Company shall not be obligated to take actions to elect or appoint to the Board any CD&R Investor Nominee until
such CD&R Investor Nominee has been identified and has provided the information required by the preceding sentence to the Company.

to be received by any CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor in connection with such transaction is not equal to, and in the
same form as, the per-share consideration to be received by the Unaffiliated Shareholders.

and each of their respective Parent Controlled Affiliates, shall not, directly or indirectly: (i) other than by a Permitted Increase,
in any way acquire, offer or propose to acquire, or agree to acquire, in any manner (including by means of merger, consolidation,
reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise), Beneficial Ownership of any securities of the Company or its Subsidiaries (including
convertible securities) if immediately following such acquisition or agreement the CD&R Investor Group together with its Parent
Controlled Affiliates, or the Golden Gate Investor Group together with its Parent Controlled Affiliates, as the case may be, would
Beneficially Own in the aggregate more than the Voting Interest or economic interest of the Company that such CD&R Investor
Group or the Golden Gate Investor Group, as the case may be, held at Closing, treating securities convertible into or exercisable
for voting securities, economic interests or Common Stock that are Beneficially Owned by such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate
Investor or their respective Parent Controlled Affiliates as fully converted into or exercised for the underlying voting securities,
economic interests or Common Stock without regard to the exercisability, vesting or similar provisions and restrictions thereof),
provided, however, that in the case of the CD&R Investor Group, if CD&R Investor Voting Interest or economic interest
of the Company at any time falls below 45.0%, then for purposes of clause (i) of this Section 3.3(a), the aggregate cap applicable

or economic interest as of the Closing, (ii) make any statement or proposal to the Board or any of the Company’s representatives
or stockholders regarding, or make any public announcement, proposal or offer with respect to, any Business Combination, merger,
exchange or tender offer, recapitalization or similar transaction or recapitalization of debt, provided, however,
that any CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor may privately communicate such proposal to the Board or the Chief Executive
Officer of the Company as long as such communication would not, and would not reasonably be expected to, trigger public disclosure
obligations for any Person, (iii) deposit any voting securities of the Company into a voting trust, enter into voting agreements,
pooling arrangements or other similar arrangements or contracts, or grant any proxies with respect to any voting securities of
the Company, except to such Investor’s respective Affiliates, (iv) participate in any Group other than with respect to the
its Affiliates, (v) enter into any transaction involving the Company not approved or recommended by the Board, (vi) act with another
party to seek to control or influence the Company (it being understood that, subject to their fiduciary duties to the Company,
no actions taken by the CD&R Directors in their respective roles as members of the Board shall be deemed to violate this clause
(vi)) or (vii) publicly seek, or announce their support for another party to seek, any amendment, waiver or release of, or contest
the validity of, any of the restrictions contained in this Section 3.3(a) (including this clause (vii)) by the Company. The restrictions

Debt for equity securities of the Company on terms and conditions agreed to in writing by the Company (by approval of a majority
of the Independent Non-CD&R Investor Directors) and such Qualified Debt Holder.

TRANSFER AND HEDGING RESTRICTIONS


 


Section 4.1Transfer Restrictions.
(2) Prior to the expiration of its applicable Transfer Limitation Period, without the approval of a majority of the Independent
Non-CD&R Investor Directors, any CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor shall not transfer, sell, pledge, assign or otherwise
dispose of (including by merger or otherwise by operation of Law) (“Transfer”) any Registrable Securities, other
than, (i) to its Parent Controlled Affiliate, in each case, that agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement as if it
were such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor (a “Transferee”), as applicable, hereunder (for the avoidance
of doubt, any such Transferee shall be included in the term “CD&R Investor” or “Golden Gate Investor,”
as applicable), (ii) to the Company or (iii) in a Business Combination approved, or recommended to the stockholders of the Company,
by the Board (so long as such approval and recommendation has not been revoked prior to the Transfer) in which the per-share consideration
received by such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor, divided by the number of shares of Common Stock Beneficially Owned
by such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor (treating any securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock (or
securities convertible into or exercisable therefor) as fully converted into or exercised for the underlying Common Stock) is equal
to, and in the same form as, the per-share consideration received by all holders of Common Stock (other than holders that are the
counterparty to such transaction or an Affiliate of such counterparty); provided, in the event all holders of Common Stock
have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received in such Business Combination, such CD&R Investor or
Golden Gate Investor shall have the opportunity to make such election with respect to the consideration described in this clause
(iii) on the same basis as all holders of Common Stock (each of the exceptions described in clauses (i) through (iii), a “Transfer
Exception”). In the event any Person who is a Transferee pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence ceases to be
a Parent Controlled Affiliate, then any prior Transfer to such Person pursuant to clause (i) shall become null and void and ownership
and title to any such Registrable Securities so Transferred shall revert to the relevant CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor,
as applicable. Each CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor shall immediately notify the Company if it engages in any of the
transactions referred to in this Section 4.1. Each CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor shall give the Company notice of any
proposed Transfer not less than five (5) Business Days prior to any Transfer (or the entering into of any agreement relating to
a Transfer).

its applicable Transfer Limitation Period, each CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor shall not Transfer any of the Registrable
Securities, except as follows: (i) the Registrable Securities may be Transferred by each CD&R Investor or each Golden Gate
Investor (A) in a privately negotiated transaction (including any Directed Offer if negotiated between such CD&R Investor or
such Golden Gate Investor (or its agents or representatives) and any Transferee (or its agents or representatives)) to a Person
or Group that represents that it, and that such Transferee reasonably believes, (1) is not a Competitor, (2) is not and will not
be, after giving effect to the Transfer, a 10% Holder or an Affiliate of any 10% Holder and (3) is not proposing to effect a Change
of Control of the Company without the prior written consent of a majority of the Independent Non-CD&R Investor Directors (such
Person, a “Permitted Third Party Transferee”); provided that the Transferring Investor shall have provided
the Company five (5) Business Days’ notice in writing prior to any such Transfer, (B) in public market trades (which shall
include any Directed Offer that is not of the type referred to in clause (A) above); provided that the Transferring Investor
shall have no reason to believe that any Transferee is not a Permitted Third Party Transferee and the Transferring Investor shall
have instructed the Transferring Investor’s underwriters or brokers, if any, of the requirements of a Permitted Third Party
Transferee, and (C) in a traditional underwritten public offering (excluding any Directed Offer) in accordance with the Registration
Rights Agreement and (ii) the Registrable Securities may be Transferred pursuant to a Transfer Exception. The restrictions of this
Section 4.1(b) shall terminate upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Event


 


(c)       The
Investors’ rights under this Agreement will not be Transferable to any Transferee of any Registrable Securities, other than,
in the case of a CD&R Investor, a Transferee that is a CD&R Parent Controlled Affiliate, and, in the case of each Golden
Gate Investor, a Transferee that is an Affiliate of such Golden Gate Investor (and that, in each case, has entered into an agreement
with the Company as set forth in Section 4.1(a)). In the event any Person who is a Transferee pursuant to the preceding sentence
ceases to be a CD&R Parent Controlled Affiliate or an Affiliate of the relevant Golden Gate Investor, as applicable, then any
prior Transfer to such Person shall become null and void and ownership and title to any such Registrable Securities, and the rights
under this Agreement, so Transferred shall revert to the relevant CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor, as applicable.


 


(d)       Any
certificates for Registrable Securities shall bear a legend or legends (and appropriate comparable notations or other arrangements
will be made with respect to any uncertificated shares) substantially to the following effect:


 


THIS INSTRUMENT WAS ORIGINALLY

The holder of any certificate(s) bearing any such legend (or
any uncertificated shares subject to such notations or arrangements) shall be entitled to receive from the Company new certificates
for a like number of Registrable Securities not bearing such legend (or the elimination or termination of such notations or arrangements)
promptly upon the request of such holder at any time when (i) the restrictions on Transfer pursuant to this Agreement are no longer
applicable, and (ii) an opinion of counsel to such holder has been delivered to the Company, which opinion is reasonably satisfactory
to the Company, to the effect that the restriction referenced in such legend (or such notations or arrangements) is no longer required
in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Act and applicable state Laws.


 


Section 4.2Hedging Restrictions.
Each CD&R Investor and each Golden Gate Investor agrees that, during the Hedging Limitation Period, it and its Parent Controlled
Affiliate shall not Hedge their respective direct or indirect exposure to Common Stock or any other security , except in transactions
involving an index-based portfolio of securities that includes Common Stock (provided that the value of such Common Stock
in such portfolio is not more than 5.0% of the total value of the portfolio of securities). For the avoidance of doubt, following
the Hedging Limitation Period, nothing in this Section 4.2 shall prohibit any CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor, or their
respective Parent Controlled Affiliates from Hedging their respective direct or indirect exposure to Common Stock or any other
security , including any transactions involving an index-based portfolio of securities that includes Common Stock (regardless of
the value of such Common Stock in such portfolio relative to the total value of the portfolio of securities) or involving the purchase

SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS


 


Section 5.1Subscription Rights.
From and after the Closing, if the Company offers to sell Covered Securities in a Qualified Offering (which may only be effected
in compliance with Section 6.1), each CD&R Investor and each Golden Gate Investor shall be afforded the opportunity to acquire

to the amount of Covered Securities required to enable such CD&R Investor and Golden Gate Investor to maintain (a) with respect
to offers to sell Covered Securities consisting of Common Stock or Equity Equivalents convertible or exchangeable for Common Stock
(or convertible into or exercisable therefor), its then-current Voting Interest and (b) with respect to offers to sell Covered
Securities consisting of non-voting equity of the Company or Equity Equivalents convertible or exchangeable for non-voting equity
(or convertible into or exercisable therefor), its then-current percentage economic interest.


 






    	 	- 24 -	 



     


    

 


Section 5.2Notice. (3) In the event
the Company intends to make a Qualified Offering of Covered Securities that is an underwritten public offering or a private offering
made to Qualified Institutional Buyers (as such term is defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) for resale pursuant to Rule
144A under the Securities Act, no later than five (5) Business Days after the initial filing of a registration statement with respect
to such underwritten offering or the commencement of such Rule 144A offering, the Company shall give each CD&R Investor and
each Golden Gate Investor written notice of its intention (including, in the case of a registered public offering and to the extent
possible, a copy of the prospectus included in the registration statement filed in respect of such offering), describing, to the
extent then known, the anticipated amount of securities, price (or range of prices), timing and other material terms upon which
the Company proposes to offer the same. Each CD&R Investor and each Golden Gate Investor shall have five (5) Business Days
from the date and time of receipt of any such notice to notify the Company in writing that it intends to exercise such subscription
rights and as to the amount of Covered Securities such Investor desires to purchase, up to the maximum amount calculated pursuant
to Section 5.1 (the “Designated Securities”); provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this ARTICLE V but subject to Section 3.3 and Section 4.1, to the extent a CD&R Investor elects not to exercise its subscription
rights for the maximum amount calculated pursuant to Section 5.1, (i) any other CD&R Investor may elect to purchase all or
a portion of the Covered Securities elected not to be purchased by the relevant CD&R Investor, and (ii) any CD&R Parent
Controlled Affiliate may elect to purchase all or a portion of the Covered Securities elected not to be purchased by the relevant
CD&R Investor, in the case of each such CD&R Parent Controlled Affiliate, that agrees to be bound by the provisions of
this Agreement as if it were a CD&R Investor hereunder (for the avoidance of doubt, any such Person shall be included in the
term “CD&R Investor”), in the case of each of the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), by giving the notice contemplated
by this sentence with respect to such Covered Securities, and such Covered Securities shall be deemed to be “Designated Securities”
with respect to the CD&R Investor giving such notice. Such notice shall constitute a non-binding indication of interest of
such CD&R Investor to purchase the Designated Securities so specified at the price and other terms set forth in the Company’s
notice to it. The failure of any CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor to respond during such five-Business Day period shall
constitute a waiver of subscription rights under this ARTICLE V only with respect to the offering described in the applicable notice
and a notice purporting to exercise subscription rights for more than the maximum amount contemplated by Section 5.1 shall be deemed
to be an election to acquire the maximum amount. To the extent the Company shall give any CD&R Investor and Golden Gate Investor
notice of any such offer prior to the public announcement thereof, each CD&R Investor and each Golden Gate Investor shall agree
to confidentiality and restriction on trading terms reasonably acceptable to the Company.


 






    	 	- 25 -	 



     


    

 


(b)       If
the Company proposes to make a Qualified Offering of Covered Securities that is not an underwritten public offering or Rule 144A
offering (a “Private Placement”), the Company shall (i) give each CD&R Investor and each Golden Gate Investor
written notice of its intention, describing, to the extent then known, the anticipated amount of securities, price and other material
terms upon which the Company proposes to offer the same and (ii) promptly provide each CD&R Investor and each Golden Gate Investor
with an updated notice reflecting any changes to such anticipated amount of securities, price or other material terms. Each CD&R
Investor and each Golden Gate Investor shall have ten (10) Business Days from the date of receipt of the last notice required by
the immediately preceding sentence to notify the Company in writing that it intends to exercise such subscription rights and as
to the amount of Designated Securities such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor desires to purchase, up to the maximum amount
calculated pursuant to Section 5.1; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this ARTICLE V but subject
to Section 3.3, to the extent a CD&R Investor elects not to exercise its subscription rights for the maximum amount calculated
pursuant to Section 5.1, (i) any other CD&R Investor may elect to purchase all or a portion of the Covered Securities elected
not to be purchased by the relevant CD&R Investor, and (ii) any CD&R Parent Controlled Affiliate may elect to purchase
all or a portion of the Covered Securities elected not to be purchased by the relevant CD&R Investor, in the case of each such
CD&R Parent Controlled Affiliate, that agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement as if it were a CD&R Investor
hereunder (for the avoidance of doubt, any such Person shall be included in the term “CD&R Investor”), in the case
of each of the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), by giving the notice contemplated by this sentence with respect to such Covered
Securities, and such Covered Securities shall be deemed to be “Designated Securities” with respect to the CD&R
Investor giving such notice. Such notice shall constitute a non-binding indication of interest of such CD&R Investor or Golden
Gate Investor to purchase the amount of Designated Securities so specified at the price and upon other terms set forth in the Company’s
notice to it; provided that the closing of the Private Placement with respect to which such rights has been exercised takes
place within fifteen (15) calendar days after giving notice of such exercise by such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor.
The failure of any CD&R Investor or the Golden Gate Investor to respond during the ten-Business Day period referred to in the
second preceding sentence shall constitute a waiver of the subscription rights under this ARTICLE V only with respect to the offering
described in the applicable notice and a notice purporting to exercise subscription rights for more than the maximum amount contemplated
by Section 5.1 shall be deemed to be an election to acquire the maximum amount. To the extent the Company shall give any CD&R
Investor and Golden Gate Investor notice of any such offer prior to the public announcement thereof, each CD&R Investor and
each Golden Gate Investor shall agree to confidentiality and restriction on trading terms reasonably acceptable to the Company.

Section 5.3Purchase Mechanism.
(4) If a CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor exercises its subscription rights as provided in Section 5.2(a), the Company
shall offer such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor, if such underwritten public offering or Rule 144A offering is consummated,
the Designated Securities (as adjusted to reflect the actual size of such offering when priced) on the same material terms as the
Covered Securities are offered to the underwriters or initial purchasers and shall provide written notice of such price to such
CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor as soon as practicable prior to such consummation. Contemporaneously with the execution
of any underwriting agreement or purchase agreement entered into between the Company and the underwriters or initial purchasers
of such underwritten public offering or Rule 144A offering, such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor shall, if it continues
to wish to exercise its subscription rights with respect to such offering, enter into an instrument in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Company acknowledging its binding obligation to purchase the Designated Securities to be acquired by it and
containing representations, warranties and agreements of such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor that are customary in private
placement transactions and, in any event, no less favorable to such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor than any underwriting
or purchase agreement entered into by the Company in connection with such offering, and the failure to enter into such an instrument
at or prior to such time shall constitute a waiver of the subscription rights in respect of such offering. Any offers and sales
pursuant to this ARTICLE V in the context of a registered public offering shall be also conditioned on reasonably acceptable representations
and warranties of such relevant CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor regarding its status as the type of offeree to whom a
private sale can be made concurrently with a registered offering in compliance with applicable securities Laws.


 


(b)       If
any CD&R Investor or any Golden Gate Investor exercises its subscription rights as provided in Section 5.2(b), the closing
of the purchase of the Covered Securities with respect to which such right has been exercised shall be conditioned on the consummation
of the sale of securities pursuant to the Private Placement with respect to which such subscription right has been exercised and
shall take place as soon as practicable after the closing of the Private Placement; provided that such time period shall
be extended for a maximum of 95 days in order to comply with applicable Laws and regulations; provided, further,
that the actual amount of Covered Securities to be sold to such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor pursuant to its exercise
of subscription rights hereunder shall be proportionally reduced if the aggregate amount of Covered Securities sold in the Private
Placement is reduced and, at the option of such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor (to be exercised by delivery of written
notice to the Company within five (5) Business Days of receipt of notice of such increase), shall be increased if such aggregate
amount of Covered Securities sold in the Private Placement is increased. In connection with its purchase of Designated Securities,
such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor shall, if it continues to wish to exercise its subscription rights with respect
to such offering, execute an agreement containing representations and warranties and, if at such time the CD&R Investor Voting
Interest, in the case of any CD&R Investor, or the Golden Gate Investor Group Voting Interest, in the case of any Golden Gate
Investor, is greater than 20%, agreements of such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor that are substantially similar in all
material respects to the agreements executed by other purchasers in such Private Placement. Each of the Company and the CD&R
Investor and each Golden Gate Investor agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to secure any regulatory or stockholder approvals
or other consents, and to comply with any Law or regulation necessary in connection with the offer, sale and purchase of, such
Covered Securities.

Section 5.4Failure to Purchase.
In the event that any CD&R Investor or any Golden Gate Investor fails to exercise its subscription rights provided in this
ARTICLE V within the applicable period or, if so exercised, such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor is unable to consummate
such purchase within the time period specified in Section 5.3 above because of its failure to obtain any required regulatory or
stockholder consent or approval or because of the failure to purchase any or all of the Covered Securities contemplated to be purchased
by the election notice, the Company shall thereafter be entitled during the period of sixty (60) days following the conclusion
of the applicable period to sell or enter into an agreement (pursuant to which the sale of the Covered Securities covered thereby
shall be consummated, if at all, within thirty (30) days from the date of said agreement) to sell the Covered Securities not
elected to be purchased pursuant to this ARTICLE V or which such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor is unable to purchase
because of such failure to obtain any such consent or approval or otherwise fails to purchase, at a price and upon terms no more
favorable to the purchasers of such securities in the Private Placement, the underwritten public offering or Rule 144A offering,
as the case may be, than were specified in the Company’s notice to such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if such sale is subject to the receipt of any regulatory or stockholder approval or consent or the expiration of
any waiting period, the time period during which such sale may be consummated shall be extended until the expiration of five (5) Business
Days after all such approvals or consents have been obtained or waiting periods expired, but in no event shall such time period
exceed ninety (90) days from the date of the applicable agreement with respect to such sale. In the event the Company has not sold
the Covered Securities or entered into an agreement to sell the Covered Securities within said 60-day period (or sold and issued
Covered Securities in accordance with the foregoing within thirty (30) days from the date of said agreement (as such period
may be extended in the manner described above for a period not to exceed ninety (90) days from the date of said agreement),
the Company shall not thereafter offer, issue or sell such Covered Securities without first offering such securities to each CD&R
Investor or Golden Gate Investor in the manner provided above.


 


Section 5.5Certain Qualified Offerings.
In the case of a Qualified Offering of Covered Securities for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, including securities
acquired in exchange therefor (other than securities by their terms so exchangeable), the consideration other than cash shall be
deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined by a firm of independent public accountants or an independent appraiser, in each
case, of recognized national standing selected by the Board and approved by the Investors; provided, however, that
such fair value as determined in accordance with this Section 5.5 shall not exceed the aggregate market price of the securities
being offered as of the date the Board authorizes the offering of such securities. In the event that the sale of Designated Securities
to any CD&R Investor or any Golden Gate Investor cannot be consummated substantially concurrently with the sale giving rise
to the applicable exercise of subscription rights by such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor under Section 5.1 (the “Underlying
Sale”), consummation of the Underlying Sale shall not be delayed or conditioned upon such sale of Designated Securities
to such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor; provided, in such event, that the Company shall use its best efforts
to consummate the sale of such Designated Securities to such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor as promptly as practicable
following the consummation of the Underlying Sale.


 






    	 	- 28 -	 



     


    

 


Section 5.6Cooperation. The Company
and each CD&R Investor and each Golden Gate Investor shall cooperate in good faith to facilitate the exercise of the CD&R
Investor and Golden Gate Investor subscription rights hereunder, including, without limitation, securing any required approvals
or consents, in a manner that does not jeopardize the timing, marketing, pricing or execution of any offering of the Company’s
securities.


 


Section 5.7Limitation of Rights.
Notwithstanding the above, nothing set forth in this ARTICLE V shall confer upon any CD&R Investor or any Golden Gate Investor
the right to purchase any securities of the Company other than Designated Securities. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding
the above, nothing set forth in this ARTICLE V shall limit any CD&R Investor’s or any Golden Gate Investor’s rights
pursuant to and in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, including, without limitation, with respect to notice of
or registration of Registrable Securities in Piggyback Registrations (each as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement).


 


Section 5.8Termination of Subscription
Rights. Anything to the contrary in this ARTICLE V notwithstanding, the CD&R Investors’ and each Golden Gate Investor’s
subscription right to purchase Covered Securities granted by this ARTICLE V shall not be available for any offering that commences
at any time after the occurrence of the CD&R Investor Rights Termination Event or the Golden Gate Investor Rights Termination
Event, respectively.

to Section 8.1(b), each party to this Agreement will hold, will cause its respective directors, officers, partners, employees,
agents, consultants and advisors to hold, and will cause its respective Controlled Affiliates and any other Affiliate to whom it
releases or discloses Proprietary Information and their respective directors, officers, partners employees, agents, consultants

any documents, supplements or schedules attached thereto or included therein (collectively, “Proprietary Information”)
concerning the other party hereto, its former, current or future representatives or any former, current or future representatives
of such representatives furnished to it by, or on behalf of, such other party pursuant to this Agreement ((x) except to the extent
that such information can be shown to have been (i) previously known by such party on a nonconfidential basis, (ii) in the public

MISCELLANEOUS


 


Section 9.1Tax Matters.1


 


(a)       To
the extent permitted by Law, the Company shall treat each CD&R Investor or each Golden Gate Investor that is not a U.S. person
for U.S. federal income tax purposes and any of its non-U.S. Affiliates as a withholding foreign partnership and shall not withhold
on any cash (or other) distributions made or deemed to be made to such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor or to any such
Affiliate so long as such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor or such Affiliate, as the case may be, has provided the Company
with the required documentation.


 


(b)       On
the Closing Date, and from time to time thereafter as any previously delivered form or other document expires or becomes inaccurate
or at any other time as the Company may reasonably request, each CD&R Investor and each Golden Gate Investor shall deliver,
or cause to be delivered, to the Company one or more duly completed Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Forms W-8IMY
or other W-8, as applicable (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto), in the case of any CD&R Investor or
any Golden Gate Investor or any of their respective Affiliates that is not a U.S. Person for U.S. federal income tax purposes,
together with any applicable related withholding or other statement or form, and W-9 (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors
thereto), in the case of any Affiliate that is a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes (each, an “IRS Form”),
in each case confirming, to the extent permitted by law, that the Company is not required to deduct or withhold any amount of U.S.
federal income tax in respect of distributions or deemed distributions by the Company to such CD&R Investor or Golden Gate
Investor (or any Affiliate). Each of the CD&R Investors confirms that it is a withholding foreign partnership (and has entered
into a withholding foreign partnership agreement with the IRS), and each of the CD&R Investors and each Golden Gate Investor
respectively intend for any potential CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor, as the case may be, that is not a U.S. Person
for U.S. federal income tax purposes to enter into a withholding foreign partnership agreement with the IRS.


 


Section 9.2Successors and Assigns.
Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto,
in whole or in part (whether by operation of Law or otherwise), without the prior written consent of each of the other parties
(subject to Section 9.3(b)); provided that the Company may assign the rights and obligations under this Agreement to a successor
and the Investors may, pursuant and subject to Section 4.1(a)(i), assign all or a portion of their rights, interests and obligations
under this Agreement, including, without limitation, their rights, interests and obligations under ARTICLE V, without the prior
written consent of the Company, in the case of the CD&R Investors, to any CD&R Parent Controlled Affiliate, and in the
case of any Golden Gate Investor, to any Affiliate of such Golden Gate Investor, but only if the assignee agrees in writing for
the benefit of the Company (with a copy thereof to be furnished to the Company) to be bound by the terms of this Agreement (for
the avoidance of doubt, any such assignee shall be included in the term “CD&R Investor” or “Golden Gate Investor,”
as applicable); provided, further, that no such assignment shall relieve any CD&R Investor or Golden Gate Investor
of its obligations hereunder. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and
be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and assigns. For purposes of this Agreement, “successor”
for any entity other than a natural person shall mean a successor to such entity as a result of such entity’s merger, consolidation,
sale of substantially all of its assets, or similar transaction. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 9.2 shall
be void.

Section 9.3Amendments; Waiver; Company
Action; CD&R Investor Obligations. (5) Subject to Section 9.3(b): (i) this Agreement may not be modified or amended except
pursuant to an instrument in writing signed by an authorized officer of the Company and each CD&R Investor and Golden Gate
Investor; and (ii) any party may waive in whole or in part any benefit or right provided to it under this Agreement, such waiver
being effective only if contained in a writing executed by the waiving party. No failure by any party to insist upon the strict
performance of any covenant, duty, agreement or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon
breach thereof shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or of any other covenant, duty, agreement or condition, nor shall any
delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right accruing to
it thereafter.


 


(b)       Solely
with respect to any action by the Company (x) to amend, waive, or enforce or comply with any provision of this Agreement or (y)
to make any determination pursuant to this Agreement in which any CD&R Investor have or may have interests different from the
Company or its stockholders other than the CD&R Investor Group, such action, unless otherwise expressly contemplated by this
Agreement, shall be taken or determination shall be made on behalf of the Company solely by a majority of the Independent Non-CD&R
Investor Directors and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (though less than a quorum), or, if no Independent Non-CD&R
Investor Directors exist, the Independent Directors and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (though less than a quorum);
provided, notwithstanding anything to contrary herein, that any action to amend, waive, or enforce or comply with any provision
of this Agreement, or to make any determination pursuant to this Agreement, which provision either (i) relates to the qualifications
for, selection, nomination or election of, or to the powers, rights or privileges of the Unaffiliated Shareholder Directors or
(ii) requires the consent or approval of the Unaffiliated Shareholder Directors, such action shall be taken or determination shall
be made on behalf of the Company solely by the Unaffiliated Shareholder Directors or, if no such directors exist, the Independent
Non-CD&R Investor Directors and the Chief Executive Officer or, if no Independent Non-CD&R Investor Directors exist, the
Independent Directors and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. No CD&R Investor Director shall have any right to vote
upon, and by a decision of the remaining directors may be excluded from participating in any discussion of, any such action or
determination referenced in the preceding sentence. Each CD&R Investor Director shall, if requested by the remaining directors,
appear at any properly called meeting if their presence is required to establish a quorum.

Section 9.5Governing Law. This
Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and
to be performed within the State of Delaware, without giving effect to conflicts of law rules that would require or permit the
application of the Laws of another jurisdiction.


 


Section 9.6Specific Performance; Jurisdiction.


 


(a)       The
parties agree that irreparable damage would occur for which money damages would not suffice in the event that any of the provisions
of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached and that the parties would
not have any adequate remedy at Law. It is accordingly agreed that the non-breaching party or parties shall be entitled to an injunction,
temporary restraining order or other equitable relief exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery enjoining any such breach and
enforcing specifically the terms and provisions hereof, or in the event (but only in the event) that such court does not have subject
matter jurisdiction over such action or proceeding, in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware or another
court sitting in the state of Delaware. The foregoing is in addition to any other remedy to which any party is entitled at Law,
in equity or otherwise.

(b)       Each
of the parties hereto irrevocably agrees that any legal action or proceeding in connection with or with respect to this Agreement
and the rights and obligations arising hereunder, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of this Agreement
and the rights and obligations arising hereunder brought by another party hereto or its successors or assigns shall be brought
and determined exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery, or in the event (but only in the event) that such court does not
have subject matter jurisdiction over such action or proceeding, in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware
or another court sitting in the state of Delaware. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submits with regard to any such
action or proceeding for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of
the aforesaid courts and agrees that it will not bring any action in connection with or relating to this Agreement or any of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the aforesaid courts. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding in connection
with or with respect to this Agreement, (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named
courts for any reason other than the failure to serve in accordance with this Section 9.6, (ii) any claim that it or its property
is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service
of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (iii)
to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any claim that (A) the suit, action or proceeding in such court is brought in
an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper or (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter
hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.


 


(c)       Each
of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to the service of any summons and complaint and any other process in any other action
in connection with or relating to this Agreement, on behalf of itself or its property, by the personal delivery of copies of such
process to such party or by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the party to be served at the address and in the manner
provided for the giving of notices in Section 9.4. Nothing in this Section 9.6 shall affect the right of any party hereto to serve
legal process in any other manner permitted by Law.


 


Section 9.7Waiver of Jury Trial.
Each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect
of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby. Each party (i) certifies
and acknowledges that no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such
other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver, and (ii) acknowledges that it understands
and has considered the implications of this waiver and makes this waiver voluntarily, and that it and the other parties have been
induced to enter into the Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 9.7.

Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the schedules and exhibits attached to any such documents constitute the entire
agreement and understanding among the Company and each of the CD&R Investors and Golden Gate Investor with respect to the matters

respect to such matters.


 


Section 9.10Severability. If any
term or provision of this Agreement or any application thereof shall be declared or held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in
whole or in part, whether generally or in any particular jurisdiction, such provision shall be deemed amended to the extent, but
only to the extent, necessary to cure such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, and the validity, legality and enforceability
of the remaining provisions, both generally and in every other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.


 


Section 9.11Counterparts. This
Agreement may be signed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which together shall
constitute one and the same agreement.
